TFF Moto "Buy for nothing and expect everything LOL"

Buy a new boat and get treated like someone that will fork out some cash to pay for a new one or buy 2nd hand (like me) and not expect much

What pros did they cut?

Mark Davis
Alton Jones
Alton Jones jr
Kelley Jordan so far. I would guess that has more to do with not being a sponsor of the BPT.


I hadn't heard they cut Jones Jr, but they did also cut Cliff Crochet, not to many Skeeter pro's left on the BPT, maybe 3?

I won't buy a new boat every two years to keep up the Real Money. Now I can save some money. Most of what I fish doesn't have it anyway.

I honestly think Skeeter is trying to put more incentive on their new models and trying to give anglers the opportunity to make more money. Now, It is unfortunate for the guys like me who have owned a Skeeter for years but I can see where their coming from...

Jones Jr. happened so last minute it makes me wonder if there was a conflict of interest. After listening to BTL yesterday, sounds like Cliff Crochet left Skeeter...

I’m glad Alton Sr. went with a heavy duty Ranger. That way he can tow in Alton Jr’s Phoenix when it breaks down!!!! bolt

This hurts me, I bought a new 2018 fxle in 19.... i didn’t mind paying 29 a year for a chance to win 1000/500. But $75..... my boat is less than one year old and 30 hours. 75 a year possibly to win $500, after paying 67,000 for a new boat..... I’m good
